The Seattle Great Wheel is shown on Tuesday, June 5, 2012. The nearly 175 foot-tall Ferris wheel being constructed at the end of Pier 57 on the Seattle waterfront will begin operation by July 4. Each car has heating and air conditioning, and the wheel can be operated year-round. The massive wheel dramatically changes the Seattle skyline as seen from the water.
